Positive impact through responsible investment
We firmly believe that success in our industry involves more than just excellent financial returns. This is why we have been developing EUAM’s approach to responsible investment for more than 10 years. We are constantly experimenting and learning so that we can improve the way we measure ESG performance in our investments and set meaningful targets for improvement. We report in detail on these issues to our LPs and actively support industry initiatives to promote responsible investment.
“EUAM Ltd empowers individuals to collectively
create sustainable value for all stakeholders” This is our company’s vision for sustainability,
which draws together the essential elements of our
approach – EUAM’s role as a catalyst for change;
the importance of each individual’s actions and the
power of collaboration; and the need to ensure the
value we create together benefits all
stakeholders.

Architects of Lasting Change
EUAM’s new corporate video tells our story in our own words – how we embrace change, invest today to shape tomorrow, build to last, provide strength, share values and accelerate change for all our stakeholders.
Sustainability Program and main priorities
Our aim is to maximize EUAM’s positive contribution to society (people and planet) and ensure our company can grow sustainably by incorporating Environmental, Social and Governance considerations into our investment process and throughout our operations. Through our investments and corporate actions, we endeavour to address the four main priorities for Sustainability at EUAM: Climate Change, Diversity & Equal Opportunities, Profit Sharing and Governance & Ethics.
Climate Change
EUAM Ltd aims to take a leading role in addressing the global challenge of climate change. We actively support multiple industry-wide initiatives to address this threat and we are committed to helping our portfolio companies identify emissions and carbon trajectories, and develop effective operational plans to reduce their carbon emissions. At the corporate level, climate change is also a source of major concern and several employee-led initiatives are aimed at reducing EUAM’s carbon footprint throughout our offices and operations.
Diversity and Equal Opportunities
We believe greater diversity in our organization will both fulfil EUAM’s social obligations and improve our performance. Our membership of the global Investor Leadership Network represents a public commitment to improve gender balance within EUAM Ltd and within our portfolio companies and funds. Beyond gender balance, EUAM Ltd is committed to developing and strengthening Diversity and Inclusion throughout our company. We also monitor diversity indicators for our portfolio companies and our Fund of Funds holdings.
Profit Sharing
Our approach to responsible investment is rooted in the idea of sharing, beginning with our decision in 2008 to share capital gains at exit with all employees of our portfolio companies whenever possible. Through our annual engagement program, we actively encourage all our portfolio companies to establish their own profit-sharing mechanism for employees.
Governance and Ethics
As EUAM’s size and impact continues to grow, so does our responsibility to set the best possible example for our wider community of stakeholders. To ensure this, EUAM Ltd favors the appointment of independent members to Management Boards and actively promotes the formalization of Corporate Responsibility and Sustainability policies in all our portfolio companies. We also pay close attention to codes of ethics and conduct at both corporate and investment levels.
